flowmaster exahust kit install

I'm ready to install a flowmaster exhaust kit on my 2005 F-150 King Cab. 5.4 Triton. Any suggestions? This is my first attempt ever. I've laid every thing out on the garage floor and I'm about to raise the rear end and start cutting.

Maybe to late but I would spray all joints, nuts and bolts being removed with a WD40 or some kind of lubricant.

x2 that, any penetration spray such as PB Blast for the nuts and bolts, and into the rubber hangers. I have a can of spray lubricant I use for hangers also made by PB, it dries after a minute so it loses its sleekness and I like that so a hanger doesn't slip out of the rubber piece after installation.

Also remember to have everything tightened down loosely until the entire system is in and aligned up. It's a pain to go back under to loosen a clamp to make an adjustment. Just tighten down once.

Perhaps use some nickle anti-seize in certain spots incase you see yourself removing it in the future.
